Prevent termites: search online for ‘Nem-Seek’, beneficial nematodes that prey on many types of harmful insects, incl termite colonies. Near microscopic, they do not harm benefical insects, humans, or pets.

Cedar, fir, white oak, even hemlock should last longer than pine, but cost more. It’s still a worthwhile project.

Thanks for the vid. Good instruction. A word about the measurement of lumber. The 2″ x 10″ dimensions are BEFORE the rough-cut planks are milled to their final smoothness (some of the wood has to milled away). Nice tits, too..!

i had a garden but it was really my grandparents that i took care of for the last 7 years which was a big open plot of dirt. when i get my own garden i am doing the raised bed with grass between the boxes
